Is it possible to decrease my maximum bid?
Not if we placed the bid already. Please make sure to chose your maximum bid carefully.

I can’t find the delivery fee on the listing.

The fee will be adjusted to the actual amount when we send you the final invoice. For example if the actual fee is 560 JPY we will deduct 240 JPY on the final invoice.

When do I get my refund if I don’t win?
The refund will be initiated whitin 24 hours after the end of the auction. You will receive a refund confirmation email from Paypal. Note that Paypal may take a few days to complete the refund, there is nothing we can do about that.

What is the difference between SAL, Air and EMS Shipping?
The speed and served countries. SAL takes between 10 and 30 days, Air between 7 and 15 days and EMS between 4 and 7 days. Note that these estimations come from the Japan Post and can change depending on weather or postal services workload.
All shipping options are insured and come with a tracking number.

What happens if I win the item for a lower price than my maximum bid?
The difference will be adjusted on the final Paypal invoice. For example if your maximum bid is 5000 JPY and you win the item for 3500 JPY, we will deduct 1500 JPY from the final invoice. Note that the service fee is based on the actual price of the item + delivery and not on your maximum deposit.

I plan to use this service a lot, is it possible to make a big deposit and bid on multiple items over time?
Yes. You can make a deposit for multiple items and tell us how much you want to bid on each item. You can also ask us to bid on new items as long as your deposit can cover your maximum bids (just make sure to contact us at least 24 hours before the end of the auctions).
